I'm trying to use a combo in a grid as follows:
@(Html.Infragistics() .Grid(Model) .ID("grid1") .PrimaryKey(nameof(LuItemType.ItemTypeId)) .UpdateUrl(Url.Action("UpdatingSaveChanges", "ItemType")) .AutoGenerateLayouts(false) .AutoCommit(true) .Columns(column => { column.For(x => x.ItemDesc).HeaderText("Description").DataType("string"); column.For(x => x.SafeWorkingLoad).HeaderText("SWL").DataType("string"); column.For(x => x.InspectionPeriodId).HeaderText("InspectionPeriod"); }) .Width("600px") .Height("500px") .Features(features => { features.Updating() .EditMode(GridEditMode.Row) .EnableDeleteRow(true) .EnableAddRow(true) .ColumnSettings(settings => { settings.ColumnSetting().ColumnKey(nameof(LuItemType.ItemDesc)) .EditorType(ColumnEditorType.Text).Required(true).Validation(true); settings.ColumnSetting().ColumnKey(nameof(LuItemType.SafeWorkingLoad)) .EditorType(ColumnEditorType.Text).Required(true).Validation(true); settings.ColumnSetting().ColumnKey(nameof(LuItemType.InspectionPeriodId)) .EditorType(ColumnEditorType.Combo) .ComboEditorOptions(options => { options.DataSourceUrl(Url.Action("GetComboData", "ItemType")) .TextKey(nameof(LuInspectionPeriod.InspectionPeriodDesc)) .ValueKey(nameof(LuInspectionPeriod.InspectionPeriodId)) .Mode(ComboMode.DropDown); }) .Required(true).Validation(true); });
}) .DataSourceUrl(Url.Action("GetGridData", "ItemType")) .DataBind() .Render())
However, the combo isn't loaded with any data, so I'm seeing the Id of the row rather than the text description, and when I try to drop the list there's no data in it.The data source method is as follows:
public class ItemType : LookUpController<LuItemType> {
... SNIP ...
[ComboDataSourceAction] public ActionResult GetComboData() {return View(RsContext.LuInspectionPeriod.AsQueryable()); }
}
And the entity class looks like:
public partial class LuInspectionPeriod { public LuInspectionPeriod() { LiftingItem = new HashSet<LiftingItem>(); LuItemType = new HashSet<LuItemType>(); }
[Required] public int InspectionPeriodId { get; set; } [Required] public string InspectionDesc { get; set; } [Required] public int? InspectionPeriodDays { get; set; } [Required] public int? InspectionPeriodMonths { get; set; }
public virtual ICollection<LiftingItem> LiftingItem { get; set; } public virtual ICollection<LuItemType> LuItemType { get; set; } }
When I click on a the cell with the combo I get this error in the console:
jquery.js:9566 GET https://localhost:44307/ItemType/GetComboData?textKey=InspectionPeriodId&valueKey=InspectionPeriodId&toLower=1&_=1492017867793 500 (Internal Server Error)
Is there anything obviously wrong with how I've set this up?
Hello,
Thank you for using Infragistics forums!
The exception you receive is usually caused by improperly configured primary keys. Judging by the code you sent this is either caused by a mismatch between the PrimaryKey property and the key of the column it's supposed to be represented by (please, ensure nameof(LuItemType.ItemTypeId) returns "ItemTypeId" as that's the key for the column specified in the column collection) or by the PK not being resolvable by the schema generated for the model (it is generated from the column definitions). It could be helpful if you paste your GetGridData method so I can better understand what part of the entity the grid binds to. In any case these column definitions will expect an array of objects each having a property called "ItemTypeId" of type string. You can quickly check if the PK resolves correctly by using your browser's developer tools and inspecting one of the grid's rows. Each of them should have a data-id attribute with the same value as the record's ItemTypeId property.
I hope this helps!

In light of the answer on another question I've just added a column for the primary key column as follows:
@(Html.Infragistics() .Grid(Model) .ID("grid1") .PrimaryKey(nameof(LuItemType.ItemTypeId)) .UpdateUrl(Url.Action("UpdatingSaveChanges", "ItemType")) .AutoGenerateLayouts(false) .AutoCommit(true) .Columns(column => { column.For(x => x.ItemTypeId).HeaderText("ItemTypeId").DataType("string").Hidden(false); column.For(x => x.ItemDesc).HeaderText("Description").DataType("string"); column.For(x => x.SafeWorkingLoad).HeaderText("SWL").DataType("string"); column.For(x => x.InspectionPeriodId).HeaderText("InspectionPeriod"); }) .Width("600px") .Height("500px") .Features(features => { features.Updating() .EditMode(GridEditMode.Row) .EnableDeleteRow(true) .EnableAddRow(true) .ColumnSettings(settings => { settings.ColumnSetting().ColumnKey(nameof(LuItemType.ItemDesc)) .EditorType(ColumnEditorType.Text).Required(true).Validation(true); settings.ColumnSetting().ColumnKey(nameof(LuItemType.SafeWorkingLoad)) .EditorType(ColumnEditorType.Text).Required(true).Validation(true); settings.ColumnSetting().ColumnKey(nameof(LuItemType.InspectionPeriodId)) .EditorType(ColumnEditorType.Combo) .ComboEditorOptions(options => { options.DataSourceUrl(Url.Action("GetComboData", "ItemType")) .TextKey(nameof(LuInspectionPeriod.InspectionDesc)) .ValueKey(nameof(LuInspectionPeriod.InspectionPeriodId)) .Mode(ComboMode.DropDown); }) .Required(true).Validation(true); });
It's still not working, i.e. I can't edit the cells of any existing rows, and I can't drop the combo on the Add row, but I am getting a different error now:
